Industry recognition of our sustainability strategy in action

2025 WorkSafe Victoria Awards

In 2026, Warakirri Cropping was recognised at the 2025 WorkSafe Victoria Awards, winning the Farm Safety Solution Award for our work in preventing and managing psychosocial risk in agriculture.

The award acknowledges our regional psychologist program, introduced in 2022, which takes a proactive approach to supporting our people. The program provides regular, on‑farm access to a fully trained psychologist for group and individual sessions, helping issues to be addressed early rather than waiting for them to reach a crisis point.

This recognition reflects our commitment to the People Pillar of our broader Sustainability Strategy by supporting the health, safety and wellbeing of our people and creating a workplace where support is accessible, proactive and embedded into how we operate.
